The managers are both dreading and looking forward to this decisive game in the upper regions of the Npl South Australian league table.

There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.

These teams are so close in distance that this match is special, a derby with local pride the main prize.
